As Bai Dafei ingested a large number of pills, he began to gather the last of his strength.
This would also be his final move.
No matter what the outcome was, he would not have another opportunity.
Chen Yan was in a similar situation.
At this moment, he regretted his arrogance.
He believed that victory was assured and had the intention of toying with Bai Dafei.
They could have swiftly ended the battle but instead chose to confront Bai Dafei’s every move.
He had to admit that he had underestimated Bai Dafei.
This pharmacist, who appeared plump and fair, possessed a firm Dao heart that surpassed ordinary individuals.
After a brief rest, Bai Dafei raised his head to look at Chen Yan.
The unwavering determination in his eyes caused Chen Yan suddenly to want to retreat.
In terms of strength, Chen Yan should have crushed Bai Dafei, and Bai Dafei should have been the one to back down.
However, when he met Bai Dafei’s determined gaze, Chen Yan admitted that he was afraid.
This type of gaze was not unfamiliar to Chen Yan.
He had seen it before, it was an injured tiger he had encountered in the royal hunting grounds when he was young.
The tiger was already weakened, and it was surrounded by a few princes and guards.
But even in its final moments, it refused to surrender.
It even managed to bite through the throat of one of the guards before succumbing to its injuries.
This experience left a deep impression on Chen Yan.
The current Bai Dafei was not much different from that fierce tiger.
They were all in a desperate situation and at their wit’s end.
But their eyes…It was equally ferocious.
This was a gaze that disregarded life and death.
“Pa, pa, pa…”
Just as Chen Yan was hesitating about whether he should fight Bai Dafei head-on or fight him until Bai Dafei was exhausted, he suddenly heard some clapping from beside him.
“Amazing, you’re amazing, Qingyun cultivator…Bai Dafei.”
Bai Dafei endured the excruciating pain in his body and turned to look in the direction of the voice.
He saw a man in black wearing a mask appear in front of him.
This person was none other than the Heavenly Devil…Bi Fang.
Looking at Bai Dafei, Bi Fang’s eyes were filled with admiration.
When Chen Yan proposed acting alone, Bi Fang, Wen Yu, and Hook Snake all guessed what he intended to do.
After weighing the pros and cons, Hook Snake decided to let Bi Fang follow Chen Yan.
While Chen Yan, who had just joined them, might not have understood how difficult it was to kill a person blessed with luck, they all knew very well what the word “luck” represented.
This meant that no matter what kind of desperate situation it was, the other party had a certain possibility of reverse.
Therefore, killing a person with the luck and plundering their luck to nurture one’s own Heavenly Devil was a high-risk, high-reward endeavor.
They were worried that Chen Yan would act alone, so they let Bi Fang follow behind him.
By the time Chen Yan caught up to Bai Dafei, Bi Fang had already arrived.
However, he did not act immediately. Instead, he was prepared to see what Chen Yan’s strength could achieve.
When Bi Fang saw how Chen Yan looked down on Bai Dafei, he felt that Bai Dafei would be at a disadvantage.
As expected, Bi Fang paid the price for its carelessness.
If Bi Fang had not caught up, it would have been hard to say who would have won.
However, apart from Chen Yan being a little surprised, Bai Dafei’s tenacity also played a role.
Bai Dafei first escaped from the hands of Wen Yu and then was able to injure Chen Yan with his heavily injured body.
This didn’t seem like something a person with the luck of a yellow grade could do.
This guy’s potential was far greater than imagined.
Moreover, this guy’s personality was to Bi Fang’s liking.
What he hated the most was people like Wen Yu, who was afraid of death and would do anything to survive.
Back then, if Wen Yu hadn’t been afraid of danger and hadn’t fought Bai Dafei with all his might, Bai Dafei wouldn’t have been able to escape.
Thinking of this, Bi Fang suddenly said, “Bai Dafei, are you interested in joining us?”
“With the potential you have shown, you are fully qualified to be one of us.”
“Believe me, our Heavenly Devil Palace is far more terrifying than you can imagine.”
“The person who has appeared here is only the low-grade Heavenly Devil of our Heavenly Devil Palace.”
There were even some immortals who had become immortals in the Heavenly Devil Palace.”
After hearing that there were immortals in the Heavenly Devil Palace, Bai Dafei was stunned.
For Bai Dafei, who had only seen a Nascent Soul Stage cultivator, could not imagine what kind of existence an immortal would be.
Seeing Bai Dafei’s shocked expression, Bi Fang thought that he had convinced Bai Dafei.
Hence, he extended his hand to Bai Dafei and invited him to join the Heavenly Devil Palace.
When Chen Yan, who was behind him, saw this, his expression turned extremely ugly.
If Bai Dafei joined the Heavenly Devil Palace, then why did he put in so much effort just now?
However, contrary to Bi Fang’s expectations, Bai Dafei gradually calmed down after his initial shock.
When Bi Fang saw this scene, he knew that Bai Dafei had made a decision.
Bi Fang realized this and sighed, “What a pity.”
“I’ve met many people, and most of them accepted my suggestion when they were invited,” Bi Fang said.
“You’re one of the few people who rejected my invitation. But 1 don’t hate people like you.”
“After all, not everyone can stick to their hearts,” he continued.
“Let me reintroduce myself. 1 am Bi Fang of the Heavenly Devil Palace, the person who is going to kill you.”
“It’s hard to imagine that the Qingyun Sect, a sect from the Lower Realm, has produced two people with the luck like you and the Scarlet Flame Stallion at the same time,” Bi Fang commented.
“Looks like the Qingyun Sect is the land of luck in this world.”
“Don’t worry. After I take your luck, I’ll send your corpse to the Qingyun Sect intact. After all, I’m also curious about what kind of sect can nurture a person like you.”
As he spoke, Bi Fang’s body began to change.
A large number of golden patterns began to appear on his body, and the phantom of a flaming bird appeared behind him.
Heavenly Devil, Beast of Antiquity…Bi Fang!
Bi Fang that had been possessed by the Heavenly Devil displayed even more terrifying strength than Chen Yan.
His cultivation had even reached the fifth transformation of the Core Formation Stage.
Although the difference in strength was too great, and he knew that he was not a match for Bi Fang, Bai Dafei appeared very calm at this moment.
“I may be an amiable person, but that doesn’t mean I’m the kind of person who would harm fellow disciples and be ruthless!” Bai Dafei thought to himself.
Some people cultivated for immortality.
Some people cultivate to be unknowns for power.
But Bai Dafei, was an immortal cultivator because he wanted to go to places further away, see more scenery, and make more friends.
“What I cultivate is freedom!” he thought.
“After joining a place like the Heavenly Devil Palace, can I still make genuine friends in the future?” Bai Dafei wondered.
Looking at Bi Fang, Bai Dafei suddenly asked, “Hey, do you have any friends?”
Bi Fang was stunned. After thinking for a moment, he shook his head.
“Friends? After becoming a Heavenly Devil, one is destined to wear a mask. How could a person like me have friends?”
Bai Dafei’s smile grew wider upon hearing this. “Then you’re quite miserable. You don’t even have someone to drink with.”
As he spoke, he took out the only magic instrument he had from his storage bag, the Qingyun Sword.
Holding the Qingyun Sword that he had not used for a long time, Bai Dafei felt as if he had returned to the time when he first arrived at Qingyun Sect.
“It is preferable to maintain the purity of one’s heart until old age rather than compromise one’s noble aspirations for temporary gains.”
This was the Qingyun Sect’s motto that his senior brother had told him when he first entered.
It meant that no matter what level his cultivation had reached, he should not forget his original intention.
Even now, Bai Dafei still remembered what his original intention was. His celestial cultivation was to make more friends.
If becoming immortal meant being alone, then he would rather not become one at all.
“Qingyun Sect, Bai Dafei, please guide me!”
As soon as he finished speaking, Bai Dafei took the initiative to rush toward Bi Fang..
